Cloud control
Distech Controls has partnered with Environmental & Process Automation Ltd (EPA Ltd) to deliver an advanced building management system (BMS) upgrade for Avaya’s Galway facility.
Avaya is an American Multinational Technology Company that provides cloud communications and workstream collaboration services. At its Avaya Ireland location, the company occupies an 85,000ft2 facility located at Mervue Business Park in Galway.
EPA Ltd was appointed by engineering contractor Kirby Group to supply, install and commission a modern BMS to replace a legacy control system. Avaya required a system that would improve plant reliability as well as deliver energy efficiencies.
Energy efficiency was at the centre of the needs for the client and EPA needed to consider the ongoing energy control strategy and reporting as well as the ability to provide remote support following installation to ensure the continued optimal performance of the plant.
EPA Ltd selected Eclypse ECY-S1000 Connected Controllers and ECL-PTU-207 FCU controllers along with the EC-Net Facilities (previously EC-Net 4 ) Supervisor software.
A number of the FCU controllers were inaccessible on this project but due to the interoperability of the Distech Controls products, the ECL-PTU controllers were able to be integrated with the existing LON FCU controller network.
